Note: For the writer, the journey from wishful to virtuoso is one whose alchemical transformations occur entirely within a process of work. In our classes we work very hard. Are you ready to work and have you cleared enough time to do every assignment to the best of your ability? That is the question to ask yourself as you consider taking one or another of these courses. Oh, yes, we do have fun. But we groan too, and we work.
Held on ZOOM. The virus is not over and also, we now welcome writers who can’t get to Seattle without driving (or flying) for six hours. Six sessions. Cost $400. Held from 7 to 9 in the evening. Final portfolio is due postmarked day after Labor Day on Septmeber 5. Limited to 12. I send the link shortly before class and am available on Zoom at 6:30 to chat.
